You need to free yourself from PZB by pressing “frei”, after that, reset your brakes and wait for the BP to be close to 5 and off you go:cool:...
I think I still don’t understand the problem. The way you explain it and how I understood it is absolutely normal. If you switch AFB on while...
Interesting, if you pull the AFB to 0, it applies breaks automatically. Could you maybe post a picture? Maybe it gives a clue. I have not seen...
I would love this idea:-) However, the PICs are long gone. To expensive, to complicated, not enough time gained to justify the extra cost. What...
Doesn’t sound too dramatic, to be honest. 40 should still work. I can imagine that it will be hard starting to move and overcome the break away...
Do you mean it was not able to sustain its speed of 80 on a gradient of 0,4 in wet conditions? Or was it some kind of emergency breaking? A train...
Yes, this is a bug during the 1000Hz indication. The 85 should not be flashing until it gets into restricted mode. This is not happening for the...
Which stations do you mean? There was a thread on this forum, where someone found out that some of the tracks between Würzburg and Gemünden were...
Does that really fit under this thread?!
Absolutely correct. You use it to maintain speed, under PZB you should not use it to reduce your speed.
Just wanted to give a final conclusion on the question whether air is used or not on the 185 AFB, for all that are interested. I have finally...
For everyone, who is still interested, however, does not have the time, or does not want to read through all these pages on this thread,...
Wow, just wow! I didn’t even know all this is possible! And what a great team effort this is! Quite impressed, surprised and thankful for this...
It’s quite funny, I was just watching the “ramagani” stream (which is advertised by DTG and he is a TSW3 ambassador), he was testing the 187 on...
+1
Same here, but after I have seen what they have done with it, I got it refunded. Resisting buying it again was pretty easy, as I think it was a...
Sorry, my bad. I thought you already had a test drive…
What about AFB and power. Can thanks for the feedback. Looks like I have to wait another year until I buy it again;)
Other locos definitely do it. 101 for example, also in TSW. It’s something with the 185 that it seems restricted, somehow. And then, obviously not...
Have you tried releasing the hand brake? Sometimes different services are set up differently. [ATTACH]
I know, I was specifically talking about the AFB, nothing to do with LZB. LZB will take your BrH plus your brake setting into account, however,...
I think it mentions somewhere that TSW3 is first and that there is no fixed date for the TSW2 fixes... Edit: found it: Update Notes - Train Sim...
My experience with trains is: everything is possible… If you ask two train drivers the same question, it’s very common to get 2 to 3 different...
Certainly comes as a surprise. In my eyes there are things missing, though. I think the lights were wrong, the writing on the outside represented...
I am really interested to learn more about this. Do you have a reference to this? It seems to be very confusing to me. In post #19 I have...
According to ril483.0202 you are correct. It should only brake you below allowed speed: [ATTACH]
It could, yes, however, on German 185s they apparently do not. Taken directly out of the manual: [ATTACH]
Yes, I have to correct myself. On the German TRAXX F140 AC1 the AFB only directs the dynamic brakes, just checked again. This is not always the...
Maybe you mean something like this:cool:: https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/buchfahrplan-tool-for-dresden-–-chemnitz.52161/ The community...
Thanks for the feedback. Once I have TSW3 as well, I will for sure try it out myself as well. But depending on the brake settings on the fright...
The problem with this tool is, its so essential if you want to drive trains realistically in Germany, that the question must not be IF you ever...
Probably true:o But in TSW... nearly always:cool:
Just wanted to put this into a bit more context. The reason to have AFB always switched on, under LZB supervision, is a safety measure, as it will...
Driving a cargo train is something completely different to driving a passenger, let alone a ICE train. Brakes are much slower in fright trains and...
Nice to see you were involved. Thanks for the insight! Especially looking forward to the mixed fright 4 run under PZB, obviously:D
Unfortunately not the first time we have seen that. Amazing that it seems to be so difficult to get something simple like that right…
Everybody is obviously entitled to their opinion, no need to argue with that. But the real question was, which one would you prefer?
I need to second that...
But there are also hourly ICE services between Würzburg and Aschaffenburg, let alone the cargo traffic. They also use the Nantenbacher curve. I...
I am wondering how many man hours have been buried here?! I guess It would make sense, from a business standpoint, to go back and develops this...
Would be really neat if we could choose some kind of factor, how often failures are likely to happen, in timetable mode.
Thanks, Lukas! Much appreciated for clearing this up. Also, quite impressed to how much depth DTG has pushed this system. Looking forward trying...
It was a joke! But without safety systems, being in a game, what is stopping you…
Do you know what happens when you drive without LZB? Does the modelled route take this into account?
Which would be a shame, as I understood in a preview stream that Matt (I believe) said it was enhanced quite a bit.
As I am not at home, currently, I have not downloaded TSW3, however, tried to glance through a couple of reviews on YT. I was not able to fully...
Good point, of course you can drive as fast as you want if you switch LZB off:D didn’t think about that.
Nice:cool:
Not at all. That’s the nature of this route, which was originally build for 250kph. In the meantime the rules for high speed lines in Germany have...
I second that. Don’t have TSW3 yet, but seem to remember it being said somewhere…
